Once I've used up my Sonus Motorkote I may try DP Pro Trim Detailer on the engine.

I have DP's Engine Degreaser. I'm still using Sonus Motorkote on the engine. I'm curious how well Pro Trim Detailer would hold up against salt/sand vs the Sonus product. I'm looking for maximum...

Looks great. I've been using Sonus Motorkote for about 2 years now. My primary interest in it was due to the fact that it actually protects as well as shines. It has a more natural/OEM look to it....

Nice! I may be doing the same soon. I have a Subaru I want to treat with the Sonus because I take it on the beach.

Update. One month later it still looks great. This stuff is awesome. I'll try and post some pics tomorrow. Attracts little dust/dirt. Just had a few days of rain too.

Good to know, thanks.

I just spent the last few weeks researching engine detailers and I even posted some pics of the Honda I just did using Sonus Motorkote.

Here are what I think are 5 common options available...

Mike, have you tried Sonus Motorkote?

In terms of looks, I think the Sonus is as good, but not better. I think the main advantage of the Sonus is that it actually protects the plastic/rubber etc. because it's wax based. The others seem...

I have CD2 on one car, and I'm using Motorkote on the other. The Motorkote leaves a more natural, less tacky finish. Harder to apply, but I think it's a better product than CD2.

The other...

Any update on how well it's holding up?

That's a good question, I don't know. The belt has been brown for awhile. I really needs to be replaced soon. I did cover it, but I'm not sure why it looks so brown in these photos.

I used a...

Thanks!

I've been playing around with different engine detailers lately. I used CD2 on the Mazda, Sonus on the Honda. I initially tested the Sonus on the Mazda 3 engine cover and wasn't to happy with it. I...

I'm curious, how has this held up for you over the last year? I just used it for the first time on my engine. Looks great.

Nice. I'm sticking with it. I like the results.

Update. Looks A LOT better now that I added a bit more. I wasn't really spraying enough. It's evening out now and looking very good. I'm impressed with the finished look even at this point.

It's been 2 hours, still streaky looking. Hope I didn't use to much. If I used any less, I would not have covered enough of the engine surface.

I just used it for the first time today. I'll let you know how it turns out after it settles. I applied one coat (5-7 sprays over the entire engine) and followed up with a second coat about 45...

^ +1. I agree.

Going to use Sonus Motorkote.

I'm going to give Sonus Motorkote a shot. I have CD2 as well.

Thanks guys. I think I'll stick with products that are designed for cars. LOL

Thanks, yeah the CD2 does work well and I may just stick with that. But I also have a bottle of Sonus Motorkote I'd like to try. Simple Green Pro HD sounds like a good option as does the Gunk...
